ok so when i let the clutch pedal out and the clutch engaged... i hear a grinding noise like the clutch is scraping the pressure plate or something... i dont think that is the problem, i think it is a bad throw out bearing... cuz its only when the clutch pedal is out... any ideas? if it is the throw out bearing is that a difficult procedure? any suggestions? thanks

You may have a clutch failure or something wrong in the trans? The only time the throwout bearing is spinning is when the clutch pedal is pressed. It may be spinning some when released but there is no load on it.

sometimes the throwout bearing will vibrate while its disengaged creating a rattle or squeak, and then go away when you press the clutch. Which stops the vibration. That may be the problem. If not it could be the input shaft.

i think my clutch assembly is screwed up too. it makes that grinding/squeak noise when in gear and the clutch pedal is pressed down.

today, i was driving it to show my friend what was going on, and when i came up to the first light, it wouldnt come out of gear, even when the clutch pedal was floored, so it stalled. The car then wouldnt start up because it was like trying to start the car in first gear, so we pushed it out of the street, and while in motion, my friend told me to try and start it (kind of like Little Miss Sunshine) and it worked. I made it back home safely, and it seemed fine to drive when i pulled in; no stalling with the clutch pedal floored.

Have u insatalled to motor recently ? same noice for mine but my metal shield that is between motor and tranny was robbin jack it up get underneath get a friend to start it and listen.. Use jack stands lol
